We have a ski waxing station in the garage, including a table, vise, waxing iron, scrapers and brush) so you can wax your skis. Just bring your preferred wax. Lastly, three sets of Tubbs snowshoes come with the home. Enjoy winter right from your backyard in a home away from home.

Our cozy oasis is within a mile of Michigan Tech (and their fabulous recreational trails), within 2 miles of Downtown Houghton, and within 11 miles of Mt. Ripley, the Quincy Mine, and the Houghton County airport. If the location wasn’t enough, you’ll love our place because it’s super cozy, and you get the whole house - so it’s private, too! We welcome couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, families, and friends!

As a 1900s era mining home, the upstairs used to consist of 3 very small bedrooms. The entire upstairs was opened up into a single loft style room featuring a new Restonic (Made in the UP!) Queen size bed and a twin bed.

The living room features a pull out couch with an acceptable mattress (better than the floor).

Kitchen:
Eat-in kitchen with new appliances, crockpot, toaster, and coffee maker). The fridge is stocked with basics (ketchup, mustard, etc) and we also provide complimentary coffee and tea.

Quiet cabin close to Houghton
This is a very well maintained and rustic cabin / small house in a quiet neighborhood just a mile or two from the bridge in Houghton. We could walk to the ski trails and had easy access to US-41 and downtown. The cabin was clean and very well cared for, had window A/C in the upstairs room, and had plenty of room for two. The neighborhood is full of trees and was quiet without being isolated. We would certainly stay again if we come back to Houghton.

Great location!
While it may not have privacy for parents if staying with kids, the property is charming. A historic home i imagine from the mining era. It had everything we needed to host our son and his friends for a Resurrection Sunday dinner and was only a block away! Short drive to downtown and walmart and onyl 15 minutes from the church in Dollar Bay we went to. Will definitely stay again if theyll have us!

Quaint and close to Tech trails
It was a nice place but we only slept there . We were visiting our son and had friends staying elsewhere and that is where we spent the majority of our time. There is only one bathroom and it is located on the lower level as far away from the upstairs bedroom as you can get. It was not an issue for us, but I can see how it would be for anyone who uses the bathroom at night. The back yard is inviting if you have accommodating weather and the trails are outside your back door. Very convenient. There was only one hand towel for the bathroom. I suggest having the same number as wash cloths and bath towels. It was nice to have coffee and breakfast/energy bars. We did use those. Thank you. I would say based on VRBOs we have stayed at previously in the area, this one may be a bit overpriced.

Perfect little vacation house
This was a great home base for our visit to Houghton and the Keweenaw Peninsula. Very simple but had everything we needed. One thing to note: the bathroom is small with a small shower (just want to warn anyone very tall or otherwise large). It was nice to be able to have more space than a hotel room for our stay, to be able to cook some meals for ourselves and to have a place close by to come back to for our toddler's naps.

Cool Miner's Cottage!
The location was perfect for our vacation in the UP! We loved the history of the house and the setting in the quiet neighborhood of Houghton. We didn't realize the sole bathroom was downstairs and the sole bedroom upstairs. We re-read the VRBO description and looked again at the pictures and feel that fact wasn't at all clear. Also, there wasn't any soap for the shower, and we were only furnished with one handtowel and two washcloths for our entire six-day stay.

Lovely and Homey stay!
We absolutely loved the home and the homes location!! It was the perfect size for my husband and I and our 3 children. We loved the small touches; maps of the peninsula, vintage dishes, the cute chairs, wallpaper upstairs, too many cute things to list. Absolutely EVERYTHING you may possibly need; coffee pot and filters, can opener, towels, scissors, first aid, mugs, plastic wrap, spatulas, pots and pans, baby gate, pack n play (by request), dish soap, spices, toys for kids....everything. It was everything we needed! Stove, microwave, oven, fridge, freezer, everything for you to be able to cook new XXYWe loved being close to a grocery store and beautiful downtown Houghton. They did an awesome job with a welcome binder that had lots of information on local places to visit, including a park and a laundromat both of which we utilized and were within 15 minutes of the home. Very quiet neighborhood, wonderful lot with a lovely quaint backyard. Super easy check-in instructions without a hitch. Perfect central hub for our exploring of the area all the way up to Copper Harbor. 100% Would absolutely book again!!

Very nice home on a quiet street very near campus
We stayed her for 5 days while we moved out Husky into their apartment. Campus was very close and easy to get to on the back roads (especially important with the Route 41 construction right now!) Even being this close to campus and town the street is very quiet. We slept with the windows open and it was not a problem. The house has everything you need inside and a beautiful and private backyard with a grill and a great fire pit set up. If I could change anything, I would wish for a 1/2 bath upstairs by the bedroom. Creaky stairs in the middle of the night was not my favorite. But, in a house this old, that would be highly unusual. Communication with our host was easy and quick. We had some confusion when we came to check in and they returned our call immediately. We would definitely stay her again.

This comfy little house was so much better than a hotel. It was wonderful to have a kitchen so we could eat at home and have more time to explore, and sitting around the fire pit in the quiet tree filled neighborhood felt almost like camping!

The property was very nice but I could see issues if it was any hotter given the lack of A/C. The beds were very comfortable and the backyard was my favorite part of the property. The bathroom was in an awkward location and quite small, having to go through the living room and kitchen in order to access it; but it was very clean and we never had any water issues. Great place to stay while in Houghton!

This property is very clean and is well-appointed. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals. Upstairs is a large bedroom including a work table. I worked remotely throughout my stay and the table worked well for that. The wi-fi is reliable. The house is in a quiet neighborhood that is walker-friendly.

Best Little House in Houghton!
This house is just right for a vacation in Houghton! It is charming, quiet, very well equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay including things such as scissors, sunscreen, & toys for kids! The location is just perfect if you love hiking, hopping downtown or on the 41. It was easy to keep clean with loads of cleaning supplies, fresh sheets, towels, garbage bags & good old broom & dustpan. The owners were good with communication before during & after my stay. I am SO glad my friend, a local in Houghton, found this house. It was a much more enjoyable & a way better value than being in a hotel.

Wonderful little home for our family
We enjoyed the comforts of this little home in Houghton while we were visiting Michigan Tech. It was perfectly located to the campus. The neighborhood is quiet and inviting. We had all the linens we needed, beds were comfy, and the kitchen has everything you need to make meals or late-night snacks. Many nights the table in the kitchen became the center of board games and snacks while some chose to relax in the cozy living room with Netflix. We loved the character of this old home. It was warm and comforting after long days exploring Houghton, Eagle Harbor, Copper Harbor, MTU, Quincey Mine... We did a lot and slept well. Thank you Eric and Nina!
